Emergency crews responded to residences on Rohrer Drive, Arapaho Trail, and Kiowa Court for trees either on top of or into the homes.
On Arapaho Trail, a tree fell into a home and struck two occupants inside. They were taken to a local hospital with “mild to moderate” injuries, Haller said.
Garber Drive was blocked after a tree fell across the roadways. Crews removed the tree from the road a short time later.
